| » Opinions on use of O-lifts for power (Go to post) | 03-04-2014 @ 16:40 | ||
| I think plyomterics, squats and power cleans can easily live together in a repertoire for a young athlete. I taught myself to power-clean - and I am sure that it would only take a couple of sessions with a decent coach for most people to learn the fundamentals; plus it doesn't require the mobility/flexibility of a full-clean. Sprints, Depth Jumps and Box Jumps always helped my vertical - and squats are an awesome exercise for building overall strength - so why not do all three? | |||

| It is horribly bad for you....but; 1) It is Arthur Fonzerelli cool. 2) It is a great conversation starter with The Ladies: even these days. 3) No one ever punched someone's lights out in the street because they had one cigarette too many. 4) A beer, a cigarette and a summer evening is a combination made in heaven. | |||

| Right knee is in bits. Tried squatting and ended up doing 95% of the work on my left leg. Canned it there. OH Standing DB Press - worked up to 5rm, then did 5 x 10. Seated Rows LatPulldowns Pull-ups Facepulls Bicep Curls Neck work. Off to the doctors, I suppose - not looking forward to the diagnosis. I am actually quite worried.  | |||

JackRevans said: the dan green of wrestling Dan Green never "buried" another powerlifter, did he? He has his wife to take care of that side of the 'bidness' anyway.  | |||

| I am kind of spoilt in Cambridge - there are quite a few awesome beers on sale in pubs here; and a great brewery named 'Milton' a few miles up the road. My favourite pint at the moment is 'Icarus' by Milton. Great stuff if you like it light and hoppy. | |||

| » Frankie Boyle getting dropped by channel 4 for Paralympic jokes! (Go to post) | 18-03-2014 @ 13:05 | ||
| It is pretty difficult to think of many jokes that don't have a victim in them; comedy is, after all, tragedy plus time. Frankie Boyle is not all that funny - has got into trouble with employers in the past over comments about athletes - and most of his jokes are variations on the theme of "vocal tourettes"; but binning him for the same reason you hired him seems to suggest to me that they are mainly interested in not having to pay him any more. | |||
